Technical Analysis

A comprehensive deep-dive into JVM memory architecture covering heap memory, metaspace, thread stacks, and compressed object pointers. This technical analysis examines memory allocation processes, Native Memory Tracking, and provides practical examples using tools like jol, jhsdb, and JFR for understanding JVM memory management internals.

In-depth analysis of a microservice performance issue with CPU spikes and database connection anomalies. Through JFR profiling, we discovered the root cause was Java SecureRandom blocking on /dev/random and provide solutions using /dev/urandom.
